Typical Applications
EPM9560RI210-15 is suitable for 6 applications: PCI Bus Bridging, Industrial Automation Controller, Telecommunications Line Card Glue Logic, Test and Measurement Instrumentation, Legacy System Replacement, Backplane Interface Logic.
PCI Bus Bridging
The EPM9560RI210-15 fits PCI bus-bridging designs because its 164 user I/O pins and 560 macrocells provide sufficient logic and I/O to implement bus-interface glue, address decoding, and handshake state machines. Its 15 ns pin-to-pin delay and deterministic FastTrack Interconnect timing meet the fixed-latency requirements of PCI transactions, while the 5.0 V core with MultiVolt 3.3 V I/O simplifies interfacing to both legacy 5 V and modern 3.3 V peripherals. Placed between the host bridge and peripheral slots, the CPLD handles protocol translation and wait-state generation. Unlike an FPGA, it is instantly active at power-up from EEPROM, avoiding configuration latency during bus enumeration.
Recommended
Industrial Automation Controller
The EPM9560RI210-15 suits industrial automation controllers because its industrial -40C to +85C temperature rating and non-volatile EEPROM configuration ensure reliable operation in factory environments without a configuration PROM. The 560 macrocells implement PLC-style state machines, encoder interfaces, and safety interlocks, while the 164 I/O pins connect directly to sensors, relays, and motor-driver logic. Its 15 ns pin-to-pin delay provides deterministic response for time-critical control loops. Because the configuration is retained for over 20 years and is immune to single-event upsets, the device recovers instantly from power interruptions. Designers typically pair it with opto-isolated inputs and relay drivers on the field side.
Recommended
Telecommunications Line Card Glue Logic
The EPM9560RI210-15 is used in telecommunications line cards for glue logic because its 560 macrocells and 164 I/O pins consolidate multiple discrete logic functions into one device, reducing board area and component count. It implements clock-domain handshakes, FIFO control, and backplane interface logic with the deterministic 15 ns timing required for TDM and SONET line-card designs. The 5.0 V core with MultiVolt I/O allows direct connection to both 5 V and 3.3 V line-card components. Instant-on EEPROM configuration eliminates the boot delay of SRAM-based FPGAs, which is critical for line cards that must be operational immediately after power restoration.
Recommended
Test and Measurement Instrumentation
The EPM9560RI210-15 fits test-and-measurement instrumentation because its deterministic 15 ns pin-to-pin delay and fixed FastTrack Interconnect timing allow precise, repeatable signal generation and capture. The 560 macrocells implement trigger logic, pattern generators, and counter/timer functions, while the 164 I/O pins interface to ADCs, DACs, and front-panel controls. Non-volatile EEPROM configuration means the instrument is ready immediately at power-up, with no FPGA configuration sequence. The industrial temperature range supports benchtop and rack-mount instruments operating in varied environments. Designers often use the JTAG ISP interface to update measurement algorithms in the field without removing the device.
Recommended
Legacy System Replacement
The EPM9560RI210-15 is frequently selected for legacy system replacement because it preserves the original MAX 9000 architecture, pinout, and 5.0 V logic levels, allowing drop-in replacement of obsolete EPM9560 devices without PCB redesign. Its 560 macrocells and 164 I/O pins match the original logic capacity, and the 15 ns speed grade maintains existing timing margins. Because the configuration is stored in EEPROM, the replacement device can be programmed with the original JEDEC file using the same JTAG interface. This minimizes requalification effort for long-lifecycle industrial, medical, and aerospace systems where redesign is prohibitively expensive.
Recommended
Backplane Interface Logic
The EPM9560RI210-15 suits backplane interface logic because its 164 user I/O pins can drive and receive the wide parallel buses typical of VME, CompactPCI, and proprietary backplanes. The 560 macrocells implement address decoding, arbitration, and bus-transceiver control, while the 15 ns pin-to-pin delay supports the tight setup and hold windows of high-speed backplane protocols. The 5.0 V core provides robust noise margins on long backplane traces, and MultiVolt I/O allows mixed 5 V/3.3 V card populations. Instant-on EEPROM configuration ensures the interface is active before the system controller begins bus enumeration, avoiding arbitration deadlock.

Key Differentiators
- Industrial temperature grade in the 210-pin RQFP footprint (vs EPM9560RC210-15)
- Faster -15 speed grade (vs EPM9560RC210-20)
- Higher I/O density than smaller RQFP variants (vs EPM9560RC208-15)
Design Notes
Decouple every VCCINT and VCCIO pin with a 0.1 uF ceramic capacitor placed as close to the pin as possible, plus at least one 10 uF bulk capacitor per power rail. The MAX 9000 EPM9560 draws transient current during macrocell switching; inadequate decoupling causes ground bounce and unreliable EEPROM configuration. Follow Altera's recommended power-up ramp and keep VCCINT within the 5.0 V +/- 5% tolerance specified in the MAX 9000 datasheet.
Route the JTAG signals (TCK, TMS, TDI, TDO) as short, matched traces with a solid ground return, and keep TCK away from high-speed I/O to avoid clocking spurious states during in-system programming. Place the JTAG header close to the device and add a pull-up on TMS and a pull-down on TCK per Altera ISP guidelines. The 210-pin RQFP requires a thermal land pattern; follow the package drawing in the MAX 9000 datasheet for the exposed pad and solder-mask dimensions.
Do not assume the EPM9560RI210-15 is pin-compatible with other EPM9560 package variants: the 208-pin, 240-pin, and 304-pin RQFP options have different land patterns and I/O counts despite identical 560-macrocell logic. Confirm the exact package suffix (I210) before substituting. Also verify the speed grade, since a -20 part has a 20 ns pin-to-pin delay versus 15 ns for the -15 grade, which can violate timing in existing designs.
Compliance Information
Distributor fpgalink lists the EPM9560RI210-15 as ROHS3 Compliant with MSL 3 (168 hours). REACH, halogen-free, and conflict-minerals status were not stated in the verified web data and are marked unknown.
